- An ex-president crashes into an elderly pedestrian while driving drunk.
- A congressman beats a colleague senseless in the Capitol building.
- A presidential candidate dares the press to expose his affair and is promptly exposed.
- A district attorney prosecutes himself at the expense of taxpayers.
- A politician has his identical twin stand in for him at public functions.
You might be surprised to find that none of these are fictitious. These are all actions
by individuals voted into our public institutions.
In this book, authors Hakeem Shittu and Callie Query meticulously chronicle these
tales of adultery, deception, drugs, murder, sex, stupidity, theft and treason as
practiced by American politicians. The nonpartisan effort spans the formative days
of the republic through recent times, relentlessly exposing political misdeeds and
misquotes along the way. The result is sure to evoke laughter, shock, and amazement
at the antics of those "esteemed" individuals that we elect to our public offices.
